1 Nuntiatumque est Holoferni principi militiæ Assyriorum, quod filii Israël præpararent se ad resistendum, ac montium itinera conclusissent : 2 et furore nimio exarsit in iracundia magna, vocavitque omnes principes Moab et duces Ammon, 3 et dixit eis : Dicite mihi quis sit populus iste, qui montana obsidet : aut quæ, et quales, et quantæ sint civitates eorum : quæ etiam sit virtus eorum, aut quæ sit multitudo eorum, vel quis rex militiæ illorum : 4 et quare præ omnibus qui habitant in oriente, isti contempserunt nos, et non exierunt obviam nobis ut susciperent nos cum pace ?

5 Tunc Achior dux omnium filiorum Ammon respondens, ait : Si digneris audire, domine mi, dicam veritatem in conspectu tuo de populo isto qui in montanis habitat, et non egredietur verbum falsum ex ore meo. |Achior replied.|leader|||||||||||||||||||||"in the mountains"||||"will go out"||||| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||sairá||||boca minha| 5 Then Achior, the leader of all the children of Ammon, answering, said: If you deign to listen, my lord, I will tell the truth in your sight about this people who live in the mountains, and no false word will come out of my mouth. 6 Populus iste ex progenie Chaldæorum est. 7 Hic primum in Mesopotamia habitavit, quoniam noluerunt sequi deos patrum suorum, qui erant in terra Chaldæorum. ||||||"they did not want"|follow|||||||| ||||||não quiseram seguir||||||||| 8 Deserentes itaque cæremonias patrum suorum, quæ in multitudine deorum erant, 9 unum Deum cæli coluerunt, qui et præcepit eis ut exirent inde et habitarent in Charan.
